Abstract:
Teaching and assessing students in the practical side of networking can be achieved through the use of simulators. However the network simulators are limited in what can they can do since the device being simulated is not fully functional and the generation of the exercises always result in the same specification being presented to the student[1, 2]. When the student has finished the exercise they are just presented with a pass or fail mark with no indication of areas of weakness or strength.

Abstract:
The adoption of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in Least Developed Countries (LDCs) has often been motivated by ideas of bridging the digital divide and promoting socio-economic progress within these countries. For example, many LDCs within sub-Saharan Africa and development practitioners alike are enthusiastic about the prospects of socio-economic progress through the adoption and use of ICTs. In Malawi, this belief in ICT potential is widespread and it is presumed that the adoption of ICTs will provide a sufficient condition for socio-economic progress and will offer Malawi

Mergers are a fact of life in the private sector and are increasingly becoming a factor in the public sector. Organisations seek to merge in order to survive or grow by accruing benefits of scale, better or cheaper access to resources or by overcoming barriers to entry into existing or new markets. Financial shocks can play a part in increasing merger activity (Andrade et al., 2001; Harford, 2004) and the tertiary education sector in Scotland has witnessed a number of mergers in the last two decades, the most recent of which have been at least in part driven by the need to reduce public expend

Emergency Departments (EDs) deliver urgent treatment at the ‘front-door' of acute hospitals. In Scotland, occupational therapists have had an increasing presence in EDs, an emerging role with limited evidence to guide its development. There are no predetermined philosophies or existing theories of ED occupational therapy. Therefore, this exploratory study examined the lived experience of ED occupational therapists in order to make an original contribution to knowledge, and to inform practice. Ethical approval was granted from Glasgow Caledonian University. Research methods were framed by Inter

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore and analyze which fifth-grade teacher inputs were the most important predictors of future outcomes of eighth-grade math students. This quantitative study looked at mathematical achievement through the lens of an education production function. The three inputs that were analyzed were fifth-grade teachers’ background; perception of professional development; and instructional practices and the relationship of those practices to achievement in eighth-grade math. In order to find the relationship between the above variables and student achievement, descripti

Abstract:
This dissertation focuses on the production of knowledge that contributes to economic growth through the accumulation of human capital and technological change. More specifically, I look at the proclivity and effectiveness of different types of universities and colleges to send individuals on to pursue a doctoral degree in science or engineering (S&E) and how PhD attainment relates to characteristics of students who attend these institutions and the faculty who teach at these institutions. A tobit estimation is employed to test for institution effects, the effect of student and faculty charact
